Study Arms (2)
Lifespan Integration Therapy (LI)
EXPERIMENTALWaitlist Control- Lifespan Integration
ACTIVE COMPARATORInterventions
LI treatment guides the client to imaginally visit past memories, and then leads her or him forward through time to the present using a concept referred to as the time line. Beginning with the individual's memories from the traumatic experience, the time line first follows memories from the days and weeks after the trauma, then season by season to the present, and is reviewed in ongoing sessions as increasing details of the traumatic event are uncovered.
Participants selected for the control group will be treated 4 weeks following initial contact. Treatment is the same as for the Experimental Group.
